It's clear that this article meets most of the criteria. I do have one or two small things to sugges,t however: where a page range is used, pp. rather than p. is preferred. Also, I notice the article, whilst well referenced, has two issues: I'll be doing further checks, but this is all for now. Grandiose (me, talk, contribs) 10:54, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Whole paragraphs are referenced at the end. Sentence refs isn't a requirement, but I would like an assurance that the whole paragraph is in the citation provided.
 * It relies 80% on a single source. Can you find alternate references for parts of it? This makes it a lot more verifiable. Even if the references say the same thing, it would be best to reduce the reliance on the one source. It seems unlikely given the status of the man that other sources do not exist to substantiate parts of his life. This is the primary reason I'm placing the article on hold.
 * Image check: File:Asamblea del año XIII.jpg could do with clarification. No date of publication (i.e. when the 50 years starts) is provided. I wonder whether Cambalachero can clarify this. File:Buenos Aires - Barracas - Plaza Herrera - 20071215c.jpg also needs work. Since no freedom of panorama is accepted in Argentina, tehn the copyright status of the statue itself must be asserted. Given its age, it's probably OK, but this needs to be explained. Grandiose (me, talk, contribs) 11:01, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
 * pp. instead of p. for page ranges is now ✅ --Demiurge1000 (talk) 18:30, 4 August 2011 (UTC)


 * Done I cited as well a biography of William Brown, which also talks about Brown's dispute with Larrea. The book by the National Academy of History is the most used one for a reason: it is the only book I found with an actual biography of Juan Larrea, rather than works about peoples or events where Larrea gets tangencially involved. After all, he's not one of the "great men" of Argentine history, as Moreno, Saavedra or Brown, but just a secondary man of a lower profile. The article can't really grow much more than this (not without losing the focus), I'm only nominating it because I expect to raise the full set of members of the Primera Junta to good articles.
 * As for the footnotes, yes, a footnote at the end of the paragraph means that all the info in the paragraph can be find at the reference in the footnote. This is an established use within Wikipedia. It would be advisable to repeat a footnote when there's a controversial info somewhere in the paragraph, but I did not see any, all the info seems basically commonplace.
 * File:Asamblea del año XIII.jpg is, as detailed in the source magazine, an anonymous work from the XIX century. It does not really matter the exact year (unmentioned in the magazine) if we know that it falls within the "public domain" period: published more than 50 years ago means published before 1961, and the whole XIX century is within that period.

 * Mostly done. I think the image description page needs to say that it has been identified as a work of the 19th century. Fix that and I'll pass it. Grandiose (me, talk, contribs) 20:25, 13 August 2011 (UTC)
